IED attack on police patrol in KP kills 9, including 4 officers in Lakki Marwat
An improvised explosive device mounted on a motorcycle detonated near a police patrol vehicle in Serai Naurang, Lakki Marwat district, Khyber Pakhtunkhwa, injuring nine people including four police officers. The attack targeted the Shaheed Asmatullah Khan Khattak police station patrol on the Bannu-DI Khan Road near a busy market; collateral damage included civilian casualties, damaged shops, vehicles, and infrastructure. This represents sustained militant pressure in the region, occurring roughly two weeks after a similar attack in the same district killed seven officers.
